If you're getting this error, there is a line of code in the php script
that is trying to connect to a mysql database and the mysql extension
for php is not installed. So php doesn't know this function is supposed
to do hence, the "undefined function" error.

"browser."
I'm a little confused about what you mean here. You shouldn't see any
HTML code in your browser.

Hi,
I have originally commented out all the MS SQL lines in the php.ini files so that it supports MS SQL, but that does not seem to work. MySQL? Since I am not using that to connect my PHP to, do I still need to install it? By the way, my Microsoft SQL server database is on a different Windows machine.

Do you have php-mysql installed? In ubuntu for php5 the package is
php5-mysql.

Hi,
I am currently using a Linux box with Fedora to run my PHP scripts, which I have seen in the download page at http://www.php.net/downloads.php that
We do not distribute UNIX/Linux binaries. Most Linux distributions come with PHP these days.
What I am wondering is, if I can run my scripts by using the command like php some_php.php, as long as it does not require me to have it displayed on the web page or in need of using a mssql_connect function, it does not give me any errors at all. Otherwise, it consistently gives me errors "Call to undefined function: mysql_connect()...".
I can only see the HTML code of the php functions I call within the code at the command output in text format, but I cannot see it on the "browser."
Are these two errors related? I tried installing PHP and Apache afterwards, but it seems that it is not providing a different message. Have I missed something here?
Anything is appreciated.
